I would like to know how to change the boot/startup splash screen in Lubuntu.

Thanks!

Hi. If you haven't already have a look here:

scroll down to find the splash screen section.

I was hoping to change it to an image. And even change the text. But even so, this is Lubuntu, so I'm not even sure if it would work....?

ok then. have a look for a folder called something like ".LXDE" or something with lxde in it. if you do have one of those folders have a look for a image file called something like "splash.png" or similar.

Search aptitude or synaptic package manager for plymouth-theme

The system which provides the boot splash on ubuntu/lubuntu as of 10.04 is called plymouth.
Search synaptic package manager for plymouth-theme there are a few packaged themes that aren't distro specific..
Do a web search on plymouth theme for information on installing unpackaged themes and making your own.

Lubuntu 11.04 here. I just installed Plymouth Manager and it does work with Lubuntu.

just installed Lubuntu 11.10 and had to run the update manager before it would let me install the plymouth manager.
im fairly newish to linux and so far im loving the LXDE desktop. couple tweaks with this program and ill be a happy camper
